MySpace Bulletin Case Study

By David Turnbull
First, I selected an appropriate offer from Azoogle.
; @  z9 Z5 B( b
ID: 1876
Name: Superb Rewards - Free IPOD Nano (Brand New!)
Payout: $1.40

. a7 ^6 I2 j1 W0 R: `% z7 mWhy did I choose this offer?
- Pays for just the E-Mail; a simple action that can be completed by 99% of people.
- Decent Payment ($1.40); One of the higher paying iPod offers so I thought it was a good choice.
- Good Reward (iPod Nano); iPods are all the craze lately, some may say it is saturated but a lot of people still don???t have, and want an iPod.
- Appeals to my demographic; It???s usually the younger people wanting iPods, so 18-25 is usually a good range.

I have a MySpace account with 5400 friends (as of now) and I posted a simple bulletin with the following fields:
) J4 O, t: N# J- k! W
Subject: WOW!!! THIS IS SO EASY!!!
Body: Anyone with a MySpace account can get a FREE iPod just by entering your email address into this form!!!" CLICK HERE!!!
. J, {  {2 g; L# D) S3 I
0 a: s/ Z$ y' ?, [$ A- t" gOf course, I linked the CLICK HERE!!! to my advertisers web address.

The Results?
Nothing too spectacular. I got about 10 people clicking on my Link and half of them completed the offer, so I didn???t make too much.

6 e1 E# M. {/ j% ~0 w; `2 H# P' AWhy? Probably because I???ve used this account for advertising in the past and people have become wary to avoid my bulletins. I did convert at 50% though, so that???s very good ??「 I just needed more clicks.

+ o) E" N: ]( `, k1 rHere is some motivation to get started, as MySpace Bulletin advertising definitely can work.

You have 100 Accounts with 5000 Friends each.*
1 m* e* u$ S  x! YPost a bulletin on each account.
4 l( p' T6 b" jEach gives $4.20 (Just 3 Conversions!)$420 in your pocket.
That is a very rough example, but definitely possible.

Bulletins get buried fairly quickly also, so if you post 3 a day, and say you get an average of $2 per bulletin.

% a, L" `/ ?& e( c- d6 fYou have 100 Accounts with 5000 Friends each.
Post a bulletin on each account 3 Times a Day.

$6.00 x 100 Accounts
